Default 2000 Trans Am????

I found a Trans Am I am thinking about buying......just need a little input from folks who already have one....

Like I mentioned, it is a 2000 w/ the Hurst 6 speed. Only has just over 45k miles. I believe I can get it for $14500. It is spotless, one owner.

What do you guys think?

Thanks

Go for it. Thats a pretty good price to get a 200 for and not too many miles. You should try and jump all over that one.

Yeah......it definately sounds great. I got approved for a loan.......so now it's just time to work out the #'s. It is from a dealer and only has had one owner. The dealer has had it for almost 2 months, it is the end of the month...so they are lookin' to hit the numbers. With a little luck I'll be cruisin' in a new ride tomorrow afternoon!!!!!!!!!

Well, sometime between the test drive on Thursday and telling them I'll be down there today......those f'ers sold it!!!!! That just seems f'd up to me.
Tell someone you'll be down there to buy the car......after filling out the paper work........and they sell it...

That's the last time I go down there

This sounds like a possible alternative and the price is great for a 2001 and the SOM look sweet IMO.

Who knows? Maybe the dealership selling the car to someone else was to your best?

OK. I was talking about the dealership that 'beast' had the car he was looking at (that was sold) and not your offer.

BTW, congrats on the purchase 'beast'

Yeah congrats on the purchase. I know what it feels like to be back in an Fbody especially since this 2000 cost me less then 12K with 30K miles on her.
